However, navigating the sheer volume of information and options can feel daunting.

That's why I'm thrilled to invite you to my seminar. As an experienced secondary Social Studies teacher, I understand the unique challenges and opportunities of using AI because I'm living that reality each day in my own classroom. Throughout our day together, we will explore the best ways to use AI to greatly enhance your Social Studies instruction and program.

Together, we'll explore how AI can help you:

Quickly create more engaging, interactive, personalized content to capture your students' attention
Streamline time-consuming tasks like grading, freeing you up to focus on high-impact instruction
Boost your students' success by enhancing the way you teach and support them
And much, much more!

AI will never replace great teaching, but I'd like to show you how it can serve as a powerful assistant to us in our Social Studies classrooms. I'll share dozens of specific AI tools, resources, and strategies you can immediately incorporate into your existing program.
